Teenager in the House

By | March 3, 2011

We have joined the club.  Should the Lord will, we will be part of this group for the next 19 years. 

At one point I had hoped to finish my doctorate before our oldest turned 13 and I turned 40.  I have now missed the first goal.

The preparation for today’s test was the most difficult I have endured in as long as I can remember.  The Lord was gracious and I did not die.  In the process I learned a lot.  And I was pleasantly surprised that the test didn’t include most of the killer questions I thought of in the last few days.

I have one more to go, but I’m not really sure what I need to study.  I’m not going to think about it until tomorrow morning.

    “I ‘m not going to think about it until tomorrow morning.”

    That sounds like the kind of procrastination I used to do in college (yes,[ashamedly] even for your classes) and still sometimes do. ;) Praying for you!
    P.S. I’m not saying you are procrastinating…just that that sounded like a line from my brain. :)
    P.P.S. I may have a seminar to go to this summer in Arlington, TX. Are you guys close by? If so, I totally am going to invite myself over to your house…that is, may I come and say hello? Please.

    Ilena – we are about 45 min from Arlington. We’d love to see you, and we have a guest room, so if you can extend your trip, you should!
